Ann Hutchinson A heroine can be defined as a woman of heroic character a female hero As far back as one knows there have been many heroines throughout history Ann Hutchinson is one of a few famous heroines From my opinion she did great things while from anothers perspective she did the wrong things Anne Marbury was born in 1591 in the city of Alford England Her mother was Bridget Dryden and her father was Francis Marbury Francis was an official at a church in Cambridge He did not like the Church and publicly told everyone that the church ministers were not fit to work at the church After doing this for a few years and getting tired of constant arrests he finally chose to stop his public uprisings When Ann turned twenty-one she married a man named William Hutchinson Ann and William were the parents of twelve children Ann had always admired Minister John Cotton since he reminded her of her father Like her father he complained about the ministers clergy and the cleanliness of the Church and always talked about the religious opportunities in America When New England was formed Cotton took his chance and traveled there in search of religious freedom In 1634 Ann Hutchinson took her family and followed him to Massachusetts To her surprise New England turned out to be more strict religiously than England She was not welcome in New England because of her unorthodox views Ann was told not to speak publicly about her views She only expressed them in her own home where she sometimes invited women to share her ideas The governor of Massachusetts Bay Colony was John Winthrop John did not like Ann Hutchinson because of her religious views and her conferences with women He made a law that didnt allow female conferences Anne Hutchinson was arrested for violating the law and brought to trial Winthrop then banished her
